Have you ever read that book, A Shepherd Looks at the 23rd Psalm? I forget the author's name, Philip somebody... It's been around for years
What an interesting book! He tells why it was so important for the sheep to have green pastures and still waters in their lives.

Philip Keller has written the book "A Shepherd Looks at the Twenty-Third Psalm." His thesis is that the psalm is written from the perspective of a sheep bragging about his shepherd across a fence to another sheep with a different owner.
So, when we read, "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want," the emphasis could be "the Lord is MY shepherd." Of course, we could have a discussion of each of the words in that opening line. - from a pastor's blog at http://www.fccofcc.com/blogs/day_blogs.cfm?d=10&m=9&y=2006

Love never gives up. Love cares more for others than for itself. Love doesn't want what it doesn't have. Love doesn't strut, Doesn't have a swelled head, Doesn't force itself on others, Isn't always "me first," Doesn't fly off the handle, Doesn't keep score of the sins of others, Doesn't revel when others grovel, Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth, Puts up with anything, Trusts God always, Always looks for the best, Never looks back, But keeps going to the end. Love never dies.
-I Corinthians 13, Peterson's 'The Message'
